Popis: Introduction: Interindividual heterogeneity in the ability of the right ventricular (RV) to adapt to pressure overload in pulmonary hypertension (PH) is likely influenced by genetic determinants. We took advantage of strain-dependent, maladaptive RV remodeling in Fischer compared to Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats to define the molecular and genetic mechanisms that predispose to development of RV failure in PH. Methods/Results: In the SU5416/hypoxia(SUHx) PH model, Fischer rats exhibited RV failure and 100% mortality by 5-weeks, whereas SD rats showed preserved RV function and 88% survival beyond 9 weeks (pIn vivo oxidative metabolism, assessed by [ 11 C]acetate PET, was increased in Fischer rats at 4 weeks (p2 , respectively; p10-fold reduction, P Conclusion: Fischer rats with AK1 deficiency have inefficient energetics likely related to reduced ATP shuttling from the mitochondria to the contractile fibers, which represents a novel mechanism for RV failure in response to chronic increases in afterload.
